Birding in the Texas Panhandle

Photos from Early May

Here’s a few photographs from earlier in May that I haven’t gotten around to posting. May has been an interesting month with lots of rain and much cooler than normal temps.The lake is rising (up to 46.77 today from 26.5 36 months ago) and the countryside is greener than I’ve seen in quite a while. The only downside is that it has been too wet to get the corn and milo crops planted and the wheat harvest is due to start in a few weeks, but it needs to dry out some before the wheat can ripen and the combines can get into the fields. The playas are filling up in the area and that’s always a plus for birders.
